April 1st Fitness Challenge Begins Today!

April 1, 2013

It’s here! Welcome to April 1st and the first day of your Fitness Challenge! {If you are just hearing about this, check out my previous post for all of the details!}

Today is the day you get out of that slump you are in. It’s the day that you say, “No more!” to those winter blues and cold weather blahs. It’s a new day, a new month, Spring is here and it’s time to start fresh! You have a blank page in front of you! What will your story be?

Do the challenge.

Join us.

Don’t say that you will try to do it, because the word try leaves room for failure. Just do it. Be like Nike and JUST DO IT!

You can break a sweat for 30 days in a row! Whatever activities you enjoy doing, I want you to get out there and do them! That’s the key to longevity with exercise and activity. Do the things that you like to do! Don’t like to run but you love to swim? Awesome! Find a gym or YMCA with a pool that you can use! Hate the gym but love yoga? Great! Go to yoga class! Take a friend with you! That is the key to staying active. Different things work for different people. We are all unique.

Here’s a thought for you today – Comparison is the thief of joy.

It’s true! There is no need to compare yourself against someone in a yoga class with you and there is no need to compare yourself against someone else at your gym. EVERYONE HAD TO START AT THE BEGINNING! No one becomes fit overnight. Everyone started somewhere. The point is to begin. Just start. Just go.

Every day is another chance to turn it all around and today, well, today is that day.

If you need another nudge, here it is:

Don’t forget to tag your posts with #rawisssexy30 on Twitter or Instagram! You can also post photos of your workouts, your pedometer, you in your laced up sneakers – whatever it is – on the Raw Is Sexy Facebook Fanpage here:

Lovely comments

When I search the hashtag “rawissexy30” on instragram nothing comes up. I just want to check and make sure you can still see when we hashtag it even if I can’t see it. I just started Instagram to participate in this challenge, so I want to check to see if maybe I’m just not doing something correctly. 🙂 Thanks!

Ahg! Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention! I was having trouble as well and was wondering if no one had properly tagged, but I now realize that Instagram doesn’t allow the tag “sexy” in anything so it’s been deleting my hashtags! I will have to change the tag to #RawFit30 I will post a new post as well to let everyone know to add that tag. Thanks again!!
